Item 1.01 – Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

Amendment to First Lien Credit Agreement

 

On October 28, 2021 (the “First Lien Amendment Effective Date”), Advantage Sales & Marketing Inc. (the “Borrower”), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Advantage Solutions Inc. (the “Company”), together with Karman Intermediate Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Holdings”) and certain of the Borrower’s subsidiaries, entered into Amendment No. 1 to the First Lien Credit Agreement (the “First Lien Amendment”), which amends the First Lien Credit Agreement, dated as of October 28, 2020 (as amended, restated, modified and supplemented from time to time prior to the First Lien Amendment Effective Date, the “First Lien Credit Agreement”; the First Lien Credit Agreement as amended by the First Lien Amendment, the “Amended First Lien Credit Agreement”), by and among the Borrower, Holdings, each lender from time to time party thereto, Bank of America, N.A. (“Bank of America”), as administrative agent (in such capacity, including any successor thereto, the “Administrative Agent”), and the other parties thereto.

 

The First Lien Amendment was entered into by the Borrower to amend certain terms and provisions, including:

 

(i) reducing the applicable interest rate margin on the term loan (a) for Eurocurrency Rate Loans (as defined in the Amended First Lien Credit Agreement), from 5.25% to 4.50% or (b) for Base Rate Loans (as defined in the Amended First Lien Credit Agreement), from 4.25% to 3.50%;

 

(ii) resetting the period for six months following the First Lien Amendment Effective Date in which a 1.00% prepayment premium shall apply to any prepayment of the term loans in connection with a Repricing Event (as defined in the Amended First Lien Credit Agreement); and

 

(iii) updating the provisions by which U.S. Dollar LIBOR will eventually be replaced with SOFR or another interest rate benchmark to reflect the most recent standards and practices used in the industry and by Bank of America.

The ABL Amendment was entered into by the Borrower to amend certain terms and provisions, including:

 

(i) reducing the interest rate floor (a) for Eurocurrency Rate Loans (as defined in the Amended ABL Agreement), from 0.50% to 0.00% and (b) for Base Rate Loans (as defined in the Amended ABL Agreement), from 1.50% to 1.00%; and

 

(ii) updating the provisions by which U.S. Dollar LIBOR will eventually be replaced with SOFR or another interest rate benchmark to reflect the most recent standards and practices used in the industry and by Bank of America.

 

The foregoing description of the ABL Amendment is only a summary, does not purport to be complete, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the ABL Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 10.2 hereto, and the ABL Agreement, which was filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 3, 2020.
